Primary and secondary siRNAs in geminivirus-induced gene silencing.

Primary and secondary siRNAs in geminivirus-induced gene silencing.

In plants, RNA silencing-based antiviral defense is mediated by Dicer-like (DCL) proteins producing short interfering (si)RNAs. In Arabidopsis infected with the bipartite circular DNA geminivirus Cabbage leaf curl virus (CaLCuV), four distinct DCLs produce 21, 22 and 24 nt viral siRNAs. Using deep s...
